Hi,

How to change the language in the front end of the mobile application? Is there any option to support multi language?

Hi,
The general strategy is to store the Text in Labels / Buttons in a XML file (pre-written) and fetch them as per the language setting. This is the common technique used in all cases sceanrios.

I cant understand........ Plz explain it fully.....

Say for example, you have three labels on your stage with texta HELLO, GREETINGS and THANKYOU.
Then you need to create a file ( basic text or XML ) like this
Eng - HELLO , GREETINGS, THANKYOU
Fr - BONJOUR, SALUTATIONS, THANKYOU
Spanish - HOLA, SALUDOS ,GRACIAS

Having stored these values in a text file ( this is pre-compiled), you need to fetch these values depending on the language chosen and feed them to Label's .text value
